My Journey to a Healthy New Beginning

Thank you sooo very much for all your emails as well meaning thoughts! I got to work yesterday morning and was in such a freak out mood… The girls there were amazing and kept me in that positive place… around 11am I got the phone call I was waiting for and YUP, I was accepted for the funding from Second Careers… Funny thing is that i had some customers in the store and immediately after hanging up the phone I was on such a high trying to keep it together until they left the store.. I told them they were my good luck charms politely had a conversation with them then said goodbye… IMMEDIATELY after they left I did the screaming I wanted to do and was so overwhelmed with emotions! I am just so excited for this amazing new journey ahead of me- just remind me of how in love with this decision I am when I am overwhelmed with studies, homework, being a Mommy, working and everything else… you know what?! Bring it ON! I am soooo ready and excited for this new opportunity.

So I start on Tuesday! Yes I do! Funding comes in at the end of September so until then I need to figure it all out! Yikes! Books, fixing my vehicle until my new one comes into my life… work and studies and still being a Mommy. The Mommy part I have made an absolute non-negotiable. Being a mom is the best job in the entire world and one that I take very seriously. I have specifically broken up my time so Mommy Time is at the top of the list, then school, then work. So far on paper, I’ll be seeing my babies as much as I can and work has been AMAZING at scheduling time around being a Mom. I am soooo very grateful that they understand my schedule and still know that I can be an amazing asset to their team. Work is still such a fun place to go to.. I get to watch people’s dreams come into reality every day.. engagements, couples in love, anniversaries, weddings, funerals.. I get to be a part of happy childhood memories when they find an item in our food isle and come and tell me about such an amazing part of their life. I am sooo very blessed to be surrounded with such love on a daily basis!

Well, it’s a long weekend here and last night I had my neighbours over for drinks to celebrate my acceptance and have a fun get together. There is talk about going out again tonight but I am not so sure 2 nights of drinking would best best. LOL. I think I need to focus on getting my car fixed and relaxing this weekend before life gets pretty crazy; well crazy in a good way! lol

Hugs!
